The Bergara BMR Micro 17HMR is a lightweight precision bolt-action rifle with a carbon fiber barrel, perfect for varmint hunting and target shooting with minimal recoil.
The Bergara BMR Micro .17 HMR is a featherweight precision rimfire built for shooters who demand match-grade accuracy without the weight penalty. Chambered in .17 HMR—a cartridge that delivers flat trajectory and explosive varmint performance—this rifle pairs Bergara’s legendary barrel craftsmanship with a compact, NRL22 Base Class–compliant action. The CURE Carbon barrel saves weight while maintaining the sub-MOA accuracy guarantee that defines every Bergara rifle. Whether you’re hunting prairie dogs across West Texas rangeland or competing at the line, the BMR Micro delivers.
Sub-MOA (sub-1-inch groups at 100 yards with quality factory ammunition)
Why the BMR Micro .17 HMR Stands Out
CURE Carbon Barrel for Weight Reduction: At 5.5–5.8 lbs fully assembled, this rifle carries like a hunting rifle but shoots like a match rifle. The carbon barrel construction eliminates unnecessary mass without compromising accuracy or barrel life.
Two Magazines, Zero Compromise: Ships ready for both field work (5-round hunting mag) and competition (10-round match mag). No need to buy or swap magazines based on your use case.
Match Chamber in .17 HMR: The .17 HMR chambering is precisely dimensioned for best-in-class rimfire accuracy. At 100 yards, expect tight groups and consistent velocity shot to shot.
Bergara Micro Action with B-14 DNA: Built on the same design principles as the acclaimed B-14 centerfire action but engineered lighter and more compact. Full compatibility with Remington 700 aftermarket ecosystem—triggers, stocks, chassis, and scope mounts all fit.
Externally Adjustable Trigger, No Gunsmith Required: The Bergara Performance Trigger adjusts from 2 to 4 lbs with an Allen key. Set it to your preference and lock it in. Reviewers consistently call it crisp and on par with upgraded aftermarket triggers costing twice as much.
Bergara’s Barrel Legacy
Bergara barrels are made in the Basque region of Spain—a region with centuries of gunmaking tradition. Every barrel undergoes Bergara’s five-step manufacturing process: straightening for stress-free steel, deep-hole drilling for true bore geometry, three-spindle diamond honing to a mirror finish, button rifling with carbide buttons held to less than .0002″ groove diameter tolerance, and high-temperature stress relieving for dimensional stability and longevity. This process, traditionally reserved for hand-lapped custom barrels, is why a factory Bergara rimfire shoots with the accuracy of a $2,000 custom rifle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why .17 HMR instead of .22 LR on the BMR Micro?
.17 HMR delivers significantly flatter trajectory, higher velocity (~2,650 fps vs. 1,050 fps for .22 LR), and devastating performance on varmints out to 150+ yards. If you’re hunting prairie dogs, ground squirrels, or coyotes across open country, .17 HMR is the choice. If you’re after pure target work or small-game hunting at close range, .22 LR edges it out on cost per round and availability. The BMR Micro is available in all three calibers (.22 LR, .22 WMR, .17 HMR), so you can pick what matches your hunt.
Does the CURE Carbon barrel affect accuracy or barrel life?
No. Carbon barrels reduce weight through material science, not by cutting corners. The rifling and chamber are identical to the standard 4140 steel version, and the .17 HMR cartridge generates minimal heat stress on rimfire barrels. You’ll see the same sub-MOA accuracy guarantee and the same barrel longevity—thousands of rounds. The only difference is you’re carrying 1–2 lbs less weight to the field.
Will Remington 700 triggers and stocks fit the BMR Micro action?
Yes. The Bergara Micro Rimfire action is built on a Remington 700 footprint, which means it accepts any aftermarket trigger, stock, chassis, or scope mount designed for a Rem 700. That opens up a massive ecosystem of upgrades and customization. That said, the factory Bergara Performance Trigger is already excellent—adjustable, crisp, and well worth keeping as-is.
What’s the practical difference between the 5-round and 10-round magazines?
The 5-round magazine is designed for hunting—lighter, compact, and less likely to catch on brush or clothing in the field. The 10-round magazine is optimized for competition (NRL22, benchrest, etc.) where you want more rounds downrange between reloads. Since both ship with the rifle, you choose based on the day’s mission.
Is the trigger safe for carry and field use?
Absolutely. The Bergara Performance Trigger is factory-set to approximately 3–3.5 lbs, which is a reliable middle ground for both hunting and competition. At 2 lbs, it’s clean enough for precision work; at 4 lbs, it’s safe for field carry. The trigger is not a match trigger that requires babying—it’s a purpose-built rimfire trigger designed for real-world use.
